Great product

8/15/2014byJ. A.

Enjoy using with my walking routine. I adjusted it shorter than suggested because I was dragging it at the recommended length. I feel the results in my upper body. I am mindful of standing taller and pulling in my abs. I am disappointed that I am unable to buy extra tips once these wear out.

Good addition to walking

Great addition to a walking routine. I typically walk for exercise, but never felt I was getting a good workout. Bungy Pumps add upper body work, so I feel great.

Fitness Poles

1/31/2019byJudy

I purchased this for my sister who ha a knee injury and can no longer run. She was excited to try and enjoyed. It does take a few tries to get a flow going; but once you get used to it it's fine. Gives a good workout and much better than just walking!
Would recommend to others!

Good except the fraudulent misrepresentation

I got the Number One and love how sturdy the poles feel. My sister is thinking about using them on the Appalachian Trail. My only complaint is that the poles are advertised as being a dark color, perhaps blue or black. I didn’t see any place to ask for a particular color on the Grommet. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered they are ridiculous tennis ball neon. But when people point at me and laugh at how moronic I look, I can say “I might look like an idiot, but I’m burning 77% percent more calories than you are.”

My order was changed

12/1/2016byPAMELA

The ones I ordered were out of stock so I was graciously upgraded. How nice! But.......
This meant I couldn't use them yet as I am not up to that level of fitness after bi-lateral knee replacements and obesity.... balance problems.
I have lost some weight and still have not been able to walk far with these except in my apartment. They work fine there as the carpet and flooring add grip I wouldn't get outdoors.
Joining a gym tomorrow for treadmill and hope to be able to use these as they work the heck out of my arms as well as make me use my abs to keep posture. Works the core well.

Shipper substituted the higher resistance model

8/22/2016byMaureen

It appears to be just fine for this 72 year old female walker (me). I question that anyone would need the lower resistance model. It does engage the upper body and I feel provides a more complete workout.

I am only 5" 4" and wish the pole would adjust to a slightly shorter length.

Good, but not worth the cost

well built, does what it promises; springs are noisy; cannot break down easily for travel

Works well

I gone 5-10 miles so far and they are holding up and working well. I recommend the lighter resistance for women if you're looking at longer walks. As 200+ lbs male, I'm feeling the full stroke after 2 miles.

The BungyPump Story

Power Walk

It’s not as high impact as other forms of exercise, and that’s exactly what makes walking such a healthy way to stay fit. Now, walking can do even more than strengthen your lower body.

BungyPump fitness poles transform a walk or hike into a total body workout that activates 90% of your muscles and burns up to 77% more calories compared to normal walking. Unlike rigid walking sticks, BungyPump features built-in suspension and provides smooth and steady resistance every time the poles are pressed down, no jarring or straining. The amount of resistance varies by model, ranging from 8 pounds for recreational walkers to 13 pounds for more active lifestyles. Whichever BungyPump model you choose, the pole height is adjustable.

BungyPump originated in Sweden as an off-season training tool for cross-country skiers. But, given its ease of use, we’re not surprised it has become a favorite form of exercise among Nordic people from all walks of life. Physical therapists have even been known to recommend BungyPump for those recovering from injuries and back problems. These poles are made for strengthening not only your legs, but your core and arms as well.Read MoreRead Less
